Pros

Boise is a great town.

Cons

Forced bell curve distribution rating system. Senior management forces a 15% distribution of 1's and 2's and every group must adhere to this distribution. 1's and 2's are then managed out. Most 1's and 2's actually meet the rubric for a 3 but because of the forced distribution, lower managers must let people go. This has put morale at an all time low. Team members no longer have careers but jobs. Don't buy a house, best rent if you plan on taking a job here.

Pros

1. A lot of helpful colleagues, despite their own workload, most of the time willing to guide others. Low level managers are also very invested in their staff. 2. High base salary That's about it.

Cons

1. Job description does not match with the position given, you wont be using your knowledge from your previous background. A lot of mundane and stressful work. You get pinned from different departments including your own department management. 2. Management has no idea how to distribute workload post retrenchment, workload from retrenched staff is dumped onto newer staff with little passdown (since the knowledge is gone with the retrenched staff also). 3. Knowledge transfer is mostly through your colleagues. Their new hire training is pretty useless. If your colleague is too loaded with their workload, they might not guide you properly, to thoroughly complete your work quick enough. 4. Gaslighting is common especially higher level management. Unprofessional at all, higher boss question and critique on things even outside of work. Their internal employee satisfication review is mostly rigged to ensure employee gives high rating, higher boss will personally call a discussion with the employee to coerce them out a 5 star review. 5. Expect to OT. Some bosses expect you to be extremely responsive even during off hours and will be fussy if you are not. 6. Their mental wellbeing programme is superficial, workload is still high and workforce is just too lean.

Pros

Longevity - most people say for a while. I've worked at Micron the longest of any of my jobs to date. I love the people I work with, my job, and my management including several layers up.

Cons

CEO and all the Californication he brings to Micron. Typical LGBT agenda, far left refuge that nobody will talk about for fear of reprisals. Catering to the 2% and alienating off the rest of us. Sending tons of Jobs to Taiwan/China, and doing it secretly - 300 here, 200 there, 500 over there. Sanjay has sent more jobs overseas than just about any CEO. Feels like I work for some PR machine now that tells me the stinking garbage is really fine cuisine.
